Discussed aurochs remains consisted of fragments of various bones originating from various individuals. Only a few intact metapodial bones were included into material. Calculated correlation coefficients of the measurements of cattle metapodial bones indicate either lack of correlation or very low correlation between length of bones and breadth of epiphyses. Thus, sugestion by Bańbura (1992) that the previously presented results were significantly influenced by dependence of analised characteristics is unjustified.
